As much as I despise Obama for vastly expanding our extrajudicial drone strike policy..... All things put into perspective, yeah he was pretty decent.

Maybe check the timestamps and see that they replied it was a joke long after id had the discussion with star. So no?

Again, this is World. Not Memes. Default assumption is your speaking truthfully. Just because you made a shitty joke doesn't mean I need to humor it either. I'm sorry I'm not content with everything being a joke.

Boo fucking hoo.

It's from 2020. It literally predates ChatGPT. Google it and you'll find the fake trailers on YouTube with dates.

We literally had to invent /s because sarcasm isn't obvious. Before that, "jk". Before that emoticons. Yeah, I've been around. And we have always had Poes Law. I was there when the ancient magic was written.

Dude didn't add the jk until hours after id commented.

My bad, I forgot we were still on Reddit where nothing is serious and everything is a joke.

You've clearly not been on the Internet long if you haven't seen someone spout that exact line of bullshit as absolute truth before.

Maybe save your jokes for your comedy hour instead of thinking every discussion needs your half assed jokes? This isn't the meme community.

Nah, I'm just done with handling ignorance with kid gloves. It's how we got to the state of the US today.

You clearly put forth your unsubstantiated theory that Nessie has active camouflage and it totally explains the murky photos. You took the LACK of evidence and used that as proof of something even more extreme and requiring of even more proof. When asked a very simple question like "well then how would it work with a stationary camera?" suddenly it's "well I was just playing make believe, you need to touch grass!"

Nah, fuck your goal post moving ass.

Oh shut the fuck up. Telling someone to touch grass after spouting your delusion? People like you need to be told to shut up more. We shouldn't entertain your nonsense. Trying to call it a joke after the fact is the only laughable part.

No, it's delusional. Writing fictional stories is fine. Trying to warp reality and evidence to fit your fantasy is delusion. "This would be cool..." is not the same as being told why you're scientifically wrong and then going "but what if it were true anyways because I want to believe?"

It's the same shit with Bigfoot. As more and more "evidence" is debunked and the case becomes more obviously just a mistaken identification at best you get these whack jobs talking about how Bigfoot is a dimension jumping shape shifter. Not because they have any actual evidence, but because "this is the only way to explain why we got zero pictures despite decades of trying".

Imagination is fine. Delusion is not.

Yeah, but when it's clearly a hoax and you have someone going "yeah, but still, what if it's really X?" it makes it really clear how badly our education and mental health systems failed.
